Motion Graphics: Creating Pioneers



Video Link - https://vimeo.com/fromform/wdka

This first look into motion graphics is a rather exciting perception on what other medias are available to myself as a aspiring graphic designer, and if I gathered the base skills, how I could approach my studies much more diverse. It is a brief indication of how design is currently changing and is so at an alarming rate, allowing countless of experimental processes to be conducted by numerous design agencies. This Video 'Creating Pioneers' is produced by a From From a design studio founded by Jurjen Versteeg, Ashley Govers & Wouter Keijzer.

What I think brings this accurate representation of an art students life at university, its the audio in which is used to overly the visuals. The way in which this is done gives the video a sense of character and natural authenticity, making you feel confortabile, somewhat allowing you to relate to the complications of university regardless of you preferred degree. Its powerful and engrossing visuals will leave you conflicted with feelings of nostalgia, happiness and relief, the overall experience is a simply thrilling. However I found that some aspects were slightly over exaggerated, like the laptop smashing up near the end, which I feel broke some sense of emersion.
